Crystal structure of apo-wildtype Glycyl-tRNA synthetase

Overview

Dominant mutations in the ubiquitous enzyme glycyl-tRNA synthetase, (GlyRS), including S581L, lead to motor nerve degeneration. We have, determined crystal structures of wildtype and S581L-mutant human GlyRS., The S581L mutation is approximately 50A from the active site, and yet, gives reduced aminoacylation activity. The overall structures of wildtype, and S581L-GlyRS, including the active site, are very similar. However, residues 567-575 of the anticodon-binding domain shift position and in, turn could indirectly affect glycine binding via the tRNA or alternatively, inhibit conformational changes. Reduced enzyme activity may underlie, neuronal degeneration, although a dominant-negative effect is more likely, in this autosomal dominant disorder.

About this Structure

2Q5H is a Single protein structure of sequence from Homo sapiens. Active as Glycine--tRNA ligase, with EC number 6.1.1.14 Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
